# getSignaturesForAddress
## getSignaturesForAddress — Signatures involving an address
> Returns signatures for confirmed transactions that include the given address in their accountKeys list. Returns signatures backwards in time from the provided signature or most recent confirmed block. This method is essential for transaction history, wallet activity feeds, and building transaction explorers.\
> \*\*Parameters\*\*\
> \
> 0\. \`pubkey\` (required) — Base-58 encoded public key.\
> 1\. \`config\` (optional) — Optional configuration object. Every field is optional; omit the entire object to use defaults.
